RULE-BASED FUNDS ALLOCATION IN ELECTRONIC TRANSACTIONS

摘要

A computer processor is used to determine, based on funds data that specifies at least an amount of received funds and a payor associated with a transaction, whether any allocation rule among a plurality of allocation rules is applicable for allocation of the received funds. If an allocation rule is applicable for allocation of the received funds, then the allocation rule is evaluated with the funds data to identify at least one account category, wherein each account category is associated with at least one account of a payee associated with the transaction. At least a portion of the received funds is allocated to at least one of the accounts associated with the identified account category or categories.
